プレミアリーグ
ABEMAで無料配信があったので，久しぶりに早起き。
あまりビッグロンドン・ダービーという言い方は嫌いですが，
アーセナルがホームゲームでチェルシー相手に5-0で勝利。
冨安健洋選手もスタメン復帰で勝利に貢献しました。
暫定首位キープに成功しました。
次は4月28日(日)のスパーズ戦，「勝って兜の緒を締めよ」ですね。
今シーズン，アーセナルに優勝してもらって，それを見届けて，
サッカー観戦から撤退したいのですが。。。
本日の将棋棋戦
名人戦第2局，豊島将之九段の封じ手は「２七歩」でした。
豊島九段がうまく盛り返して，逆転勝ちの流れでしたが，
終盤は二転三転する展開となり，最後に笑ったのは，
藤井聡太竜王名人でした。これで，開幕2連勝となりました。
棋王戦予選，三枚堂達也七段vs飯島栄治八段戦，
先手番三枚堂七段の相掛かり。
100手で飯島八段が勝ち，佐々木慎七段が待つ準決勝へ。
